I’m not singling you out RRS,but it is pretty funny how whenever we keep a player that some people don’t like it is because they are on scholarship.It can’t be because the coaches see things slightly different and believe the player is just better than others.

Question:

Can any team pluck a member of the PS from the Raiders?

***

Yes, if he goes to thier 53 man roster

just cant jump from one PS to another!

he lacked the one major thing I like in qbs the clutch gene.

*************************

Mistic,

Than what was with your fascination of Soup?

The guy has around a 31% winning percentage in December for his career, compared to close to 60% in September.

He is maybe the most unclutch QB in the NFL.
======================================================
JCs production was in-line with his paycheck. The Raiders could have used the extra money to strengthen other positions or wait for a better QB to come along.

I don’t know the exact amount, but it’s obvious that Seymour and Palmer have the highest salaries on the team, both journeyman veterans who, at least with Seymour, had some good seasons. I don’t know how much of % they both amount too in the overall payroll and caps, but I am sure is significant, and how much of those salaries are owed if they are waived or retired, in the case of Seymour.

So it would be obvious that Raiders fans would expect these two players to excel and put their respective units on their backs. If let’s say, either one of them still has another excellent year left in their tanks.

I know this is unrealistic for Seymour with arthritic knees or tendonitis to lead with his on the field play, for what it seems in pre-season, we’ll probably see limited action until he finally breaks down.

With Palmer, if indeed has another pro bowl-season like, it would merit the hope, but that was a long time ago, and he has been more in a decline in the last four years. Whether or not he has another one left in him, he’ll be highly exposed in the Knapp offense, unless DMAC is made the centerpiece of the offense, defenses will be coming after Palmer, he’d better be ready to move.

Nope, they are there for the takin, thats the risk of putting players on PS

That sucks!!!!!
Thanks for the reply RTR, now I know.

JC was ok for this team and wasn’t consuming a huge part of the salary cap. He was a leader on a team that badly needed it.

But he’s gone now. Its Carson’s team and hopefully he plays to grade.

Your right no sense trying to reason.
=========================
I don’t know why anyone even tries.

====================================

Stop feeding the trolls, folks.

Or maybe some of you just like to argue with morons for entertainment’s sake. You won’t change a bigot’s mind. Once a bigot always a bigot.

If you’re trying to put him in his place, it’s been done many times over in here. Just watch him go down in flames. He does it to himself and doesn’t need your help.

hmmmmm, I guess DMC had nothing to do with those first 6 games last year.

All about the QB these days.

I think JFB lost a bet or something when Jason Campbell played for Auburn…

Did you bet against the Tigers in 2004, when JCamp led them to an undefeated season?

Klassic, Klas! I actually believe you!

I’m not big on vampire movies but it is cool that they always get the women.

I lived in Europe for seven years (Belgium and Austria) but I have been to Stockholm and Goteborg many times. You have a lovely adopted country!

After last night I thought we needed an OL, a LB and an RB that are better than our last three guys on the roster. Sounds like we are on our way to 2 out those 3 so far.

You talking about Mistic the magic man? He is clown. Klas knows.

Zopi,

YOur post #71 pretty much sums it all up.

The Raiders have to get a lot of production from those guys getting the paycheck. Their play needs to match their pay expectations.

Palmer, Seymour and a few others should be among the top 5 or 10 at their position.

Jason Campbell has a winning record with the Raiders. Why all the hate?

lefty12

RRS,when Leinart was in Ariz the reason he didn’t make it was he didn’t want to put in the work.He went to Hou. and they were happy with him.It was reported he realized what it would take to play in the league and he applied himself.He was a FA and followed his QB coach to the Raiders.You don’t know how many offers he had or who might have made them.What mistakes do you speak of?According to those that actually watched him in training camp,he was the most efficient QB in camp-better than superstar Pryor and better than the bum Palmer(sarcasm).Injuries happen.They aren’t the fault of the player.

@ RFL

no player on earth would rather be on the Raiders practice squad than another team’s 53!

thats not possible either, its not about the money

sort of like under contract coaches in the offseason. Can only leave for a promotion

#####################

Got it.

And yeah, I’d be kickin and screaming too if I had to go from the Raiders PS to being a BU or starter on another teams 53!!!

RaiderRockstar

Seymour is done. honestly Reggie should have just paid him $7.5 million to leave instead of $15 million to stay

Seabass, Shane & Condo will retire Raiders when they are ready to walk away from the game …

JC doesn’t deserve any hate. He is safe and average QB. Never going to win with him. Good back up.

Pale Rider

Patriots are talking to Kahlil Bell RB, recently cut by the Bears. This guy is a baller, not a starter but a good solid back-up. I was hoping Reg would give him a call.

Raiders 31
Chargers 17

Rivers leaves the game with a broken collarbone; I am not rooting for this to happen, but we’re going to overwhelm that o-line

Just Fire Baby Says: Why don’t you posts those “Career” 3rd down stats for us to review? Mistic1 Tha Supavillain Says: Lol you can take Seymour’s version but I will take what hu jack said. He talked to Davis in the offseason about Palmer & Davis shot it down, ///////////I read all Raider related news all year long.I never saw any thing resembling that. Don’t suppose you have a link or source or can in any way point me towards that or in any way back that up?////////////////////Mistic1 Tha Supavillain Says: That can’t be disputed it’s a matter of historical record. Where are you keeping all these records? Are they Top Secret? Source ? Link? Or Nada?

Dakota

There are still idiots in here crying about that check down qb who demoted himself to a backup qb in Chicago?

Jeeeezuz, get a life.

@Lefty

I dont care about Leinart’s work ethic or maturity level. Thats not what i’m getting at. He’s just not a talented football player

I hate keeping a player just because they fit a certain system, then when said player is called upon they fall flat on thier face. Makes me wonder why we didnt just upgrade the player and teach them the system!
